mudcatsfan Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 think it is a new improved replacement for the death starmade out of a planetthey call it the star killer basethen you can say it is not a rebel baseit is not made out of old fallen over at at as we heardand it will be the ucs set this Christmasthat is my prediction based on all this and I will probably be incorrectthen lego decided to pump out another 20 million bucks of the old death star to the investment community and will retire it right before the new one is releasedI do have to say jaisonline you have your Star Wars information down quite impressed sir thank you for the postsMy thoughts exactly. It ties with all the rumors.UCS set coming about an Ice Planet.....Check New "Death Star" set coming, like the old but totally different.....Check. Now we just need someone in the film to say, "That's no space station,,,,,,,it's a moon". 2 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 And I doubt that it will be explained worth a damn in the movie either.Well...it wouldn't be a discussion the Internet if we didn't all jump to conclusions and hate it before the movie is out. Quote
Mathew Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Well...it wouldn't be a discussion the Internet if we didn't all jump to conclusions and hate it before the movie is out.It has nothing to do with hate. Just that I don't expect much of an explanation from the movie. They never explain in the first film how the Deah Star got from point A to B. But we assumed that because it was a man-made "moon" that it had thrusters of some sort to propel it around the galaxy. The explanation for why a planet has a giant laser gun sticking out of it will be a little more far fetched. Quote
Ed Mack Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) well apparently I know of at least one person that did tell us o master of blocks what do you see A thorough analysis indicates support beams holding back a wall, which separates the planet material from the man made structure...almost like a dam. Also, a haze is seen around the perimeter of the "round thing," possibly indicating an atmosphere. It is also possible this weapon harnesses the inner core of the planet, thus the red/orange hue. I also do not see any lights on the rest of the "round thing," besides the ones near the main gun structure, so maybe it's built on just a small portion of a small planet. The surface also has haphazard formations indicating possible mountains or rough terrain. How's that? LOL Edited October 19, 2015 by Ed Mack 2 Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Why does it have to be a variation of DS or a weapon for the dark side? It could be Coruscant's latest defense system ETA: Nvm I have a habit of giving the writers too much credit Quote

LOLDon't forget the black and yellow "chevron-like stickers" on those giant retaining walls which implies that the "weapon" may extend outward from within the planet (which will take forever to deploy giving the attacking force plenty of time to form a plan). Or it's a giant spacecraft that docks within the planet's core. Quote

Just wait, the "planet" will probably turn out to be a floating orb like those from Phantasm but the size of BB-8. Poster components aren't to scale, heh. Quote

Ed Mack Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Philistines!Phantasm was "old school." Many members weren't even born yet (1979). LOL. Emazers is probably a fan. 1 Quote
jaisonline Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Here we have some nice lightsaber sounds Quote

I may have been young in 1979, but schooled in the ways of the old masters. Phantasm is required viewing for horror writers. 1 Quote

The core of the planet is a giant ball of the crystals used to create the lightsaber blades! That isn't a cannon hole, it's a lightsaber blade hole! Think about it, it only makes sense! Lightsabers are stronger than blasters, so the next step in progression of upgrading a planet sized weapon with a massive blaster is a planet sized weapon with a massive lightsaber! It will be the most unstoppable thing ever in the history of ever! Just mowing down multiple rebel flagships with a single swipe all like voom vroom woosh! Mind freakin' blown!! Quote
capsa77 Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 If someone could give me a rough sketch of a giant ball with a giant lightsaber sticking out of it, this might help put things in perspective... lol. Quote
chipbee Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 There's a trench and exhaust port on there somewhere.there is a blue hue that envelops the entire globe, hence not possible to even fly near it without permission. This sets up a plot to infiltrate the starkiller base to either destroy it from within or deactivate the shield. Quote
